Particulate matter (PM 2.5) at construction site: a review

In Malaysia, construction sector growing 8% to RM170 billion in 2017, 8.2 % or RM140 billion in 2015 and 7.4% t or RM166 billion in 2016.Construction activities at all phases ofconstruction from land clearing to building structure generate particulate matter emission (PM) that causes health impa...
